The Muffed Target #15
Thom has taken over Gattina’s meme invention, Muffed Target Photo Meme. The idea is to share our photos that didn’t turn out. Come on, you know we all have them! You share yours and I’ll share mine!
As promised, here are more of the rose bush shots from the day I first tried out my new macro lenses.
The focus on the water drop is perfect, but the leaves, not so much.
I would like this one if I could have managed to get the leading edge of the leaf in focus as well.
Didn’t even see the bee butt until I downloaded this. It is the photo’s saving grace.
And then the sun came out. If only the tip of the leaf were in focus. If so, I would call this perfect.

This first two I would have been jumping up and down for joy seeing how good they are. I fail to see the bees butt. LOL. The last one Atta Girl! Thanks for playing. 🙂
Thom — Third picture — you don’t see the black and yellow stripes in the big water bubble?
Yeah but I didn’t know it was a bee…It just looks like dirty water LOL
Black and yellow striped dirty water? You may need glasses, Thom.
I love these shots. Somehow they give away a magical feel to me. Beautiful! Have a wonderful week.
Thank you, Rosidah. I hope you have a grand week, too!
You take the best “bad” pictures!
LOL! Thanks, Linda. If you could compare them to what I was trying to do, you might change your mind.
Muffed? You call that muffed? I only wish my best pictures were as good as your muffed ones!
LOL, “Magnified Bee Butt”
Karen — do you see all the fuzzy edges?
The other pictures are fuzzy, I’ll grant you that, but I only see some sensational bokeh in the last photograph.
Pft! You are TOO picky! The bee butt one is blurry… I’ll give ya that… but the others I would never call muffed.
Melli — I wanted crisp, clear edges and got only blurs!
They are intriguing even if not totally in focus.The blurriness lends kind of an ethereal quaility to them.
Barbara — thank you. I do like a couple of them even though they don’t match my vision.
They look pretty good to me! 🙂
Akelamalu — thank you. I had a whole other vision in mind, though.
i would have never guessed that was a bee in that drop
i like the sharp jagged edges of that rose leaf
Polona — I would love the last rose leaf of all of the edges were sharp. So close ….
What Barbara said . . . ethereal…but I can see why you were frustrated with them. Getting the new lens is supposed to FIX all that stuff, right?
I wonder if God ever looks at us and says, “I gave you a new lens! Don’t you get it YET?”
Kelley — lol! I bet God is often frustrated with our lack of focus. Good thing he is a patient and loving God!
I loved the shots. Especially the bee butt! LOL 🙂
Bud — thanks. I expected the bee butt to be a big hit. I wasn’t disappointed.
Love the bee butt, lol! Even with the tip of the leaf being out of focus, that shot is wonderful!
Roan — the bee butt saved it from mundane.
I love your macro lens. The drop of water on the end of the rose leaf is so serene, but ain’t nothin’ gonna beat a bee butt. Nope, hard to touch that with a barge pole.
Kay, Alberta
Kay — yeah, I knew the bee butt would be a winner the instant I saw it.
But I have nothing to post because I always throw out my worstest pictures. I want the world to see me as perfect as I am. And if you believe that, I have a bridge you might like to buy.
Kay — stop tossing out your bad photos and come play with us. This is a fun meme!
Funny how the “muffed” shots can be so pretty! I like the third one the best. It’s like impressionism with a lens!
